    Weight is something people can typically control. Height is out of our control. Your friend should speak to their doctor about what a healthy weight range is for them and what a healthy amount of calories a day is, for someone their size. As with anyone of any height, being too thin can have health consequences.

    Being underweight can have bad health effects on anyone, height not relevant.

    They should talk to their doctor and not randos on Yahoo.
